Florfenicol is an antibiotic approved for veterinary use in cattle in the United States in 1996. Although this drug is not used in poultry, we have detected resistance to florfenicol in clinical isolates of avian Escherichia coli. Molecular typing demonstrated that the florfenicol resistance gene, flo, was independently acquired and is plasmid encoded.
氟苯尼考是一种于1996年在美国被批准用于牛的兽医专用抗生素。尽管这种药物未用于家禽,但我们已在禽源大肠杆菌的临床分离株中检测到对氟苯尼考的耐药性。分子分型表明,氟苯尼考耐药基因flo是独立获得的,且由质粒编码。
